The document summarizes a workshop held in Nairobi, Kenya on emerging issues in multilateral and regional trade agreements. It notes that the World Trade Organization's Doha Round aimed to provide market access and aid industrialization for developing countries. However, the lack of progress in these negotiations has led to a proliferation of new mega free trade agreements between countries and regions that include "WTO-plus" issues beyond traditional trade topics. The workshop aims to build capacity for developing countries to understand and analyze the potential implications and opportunities of these new provisions entering multilateral trade rules and agreements.
